The Selling Sunset Season 8 star said it was "a lot" and that online feuds took "so much energy." Nicole added that she didn't think it was a "good look" for anyone involved. The reality television celebrity stated that since they were making a "dramatic reality show" they were going to have "a bit of mud" on their faces.

She added that she knew she was going to face backlash over certain parts but was shocked by the online comments.

The Selling Sunset Season 8 star said she knew that there were things that the other cast members may have been unaware of. She said she needed to be "patient" and wait for her moment to share her side of the story.

Nicole chimed in on the dynamics of the cast while recalling Season 6 events when she was accused of doing drugs. She said there was a "double standard" and that people often jumped "ship" to be on someone's side. For the unversed, in Season 6, Chrishell Stause had accused Nicole of being on drugs.
